3. Cultural Institution Hub – With Upper West Side neighbors like the Museum of Arts and Design, Jazz at Lincoln Center, New York City Ballet, The Juilliard School, American Folk Art Museum and so many more, there is always a hot ticket show or activity to attend and make a neighborhood day of entertainment, shopping and dining.
